Question Fuel Issue

Hello, I have a 1995 F150 with a 5.8 Engine. I am having issues with i believe fuel delivery. When I start my truck is runs fine but when I attempt to drive it, its acting as it doesn't have fuel or the power to go. I replaced the fuel filter and the fuel pump it ran fine for about a week and then started acting up again. So i automatically think its my fuel pump again. I am wondering if maybe the wires are not done correctly or if something else can be causing this issue. My engine light is off.

Do you have dual tanks? If so, does it do it on both tanks?

Do you know how to pull diagnostic codes? If so I would do that. If you don't know how, I can send a video. It's easy. Sandy

You can just use a paper clip instead of the jumper wire he uses. Just run the key on engine off first and lets see what you get. Sandy Any questions or problems let us know

After you pull codes, check fuel rail pressure.
